17 years old. Gear and prices may have changed since.
What the thread found
- A cable connecting 5-pin Lemo 0B to 5-pin Lemo 1B connectors on the FMG 6 system uses a direct one-to-one pin mapping where each pin connects to its corresponding number on the other connector.
Depends on
- The information assumes the motor in the MK-V variant is identical to the original FMG-6 model, which may not be universally true for all versions or production years.
